'Cherrida Crew, team lead for specific learning difficulties at Evolve, says: ‘Dyslexia is not linked to intelligence, and occurs across a range of abilities, but early recognition leads to swifter intervention and more positive outcomes. Importantly, there are steps that both adults and children can take so that spelling, reading, writing and processing becomes easier. This includes calling on assistive technology to help them overcome the barriers of dyslexia,’'

International Women’s Day - wishing for greater parity for neurodivergent women

As well as being a moment to celebrate women’s achievements, International Women’s Day (8 March 2026) is also a time to reflect on gender disparity.

This is stark within the area of neurodivergency. Autism and ADHD in women are so often missed, due to the way identifying and supporting neurodivergent people is dominated by the “male template,” when these conditions show up quite differently in females.

If school has started raising concerns - or meetings are becoming more frequent - you’re not alone. Many parents come to us feeling worried, frustrated, and under pressure to act, often without clear guidance on what will actually help.
Understanding what’s happening can make it easier to advocate for your child and move forward with confidence.

What can help when things feel urgent?

💬 Clear, documented communication with school
📝 Evidence that explains why your child is struggling
🤝 Professional insight schools can act on
🌱 A strengths-based understanding of your child, not blame

Taking steps to gain clarity can help stabilise the situation and support more constructive conversations with school.
If you’re being asked to act - or things feel like they’re escalating - a specialist assessment can provide the clarity and direction schools need.

We wanted to share a little about what dyscalculia is, some early signs to look out for, and what you can do if your child seems anxious around maths. 🔢

Dyscalculia is sometimes described as the “numbers version” of dyslexia. It affects a person’s ability to understand and work with number-based concepts.

Around 3–7% of children are thought to have dyscalculia, and it affects boys and girls equally. Like dyslexia, it isn’t something children “grow out of” - but recognising it early can make a significant difference. With the right support, children can develop strategies that help them feel more confident in school and everyday life. ☺️

Early signs might include:
• Difficulty understanding quantities
• Struggling to recognise number symbols
• Challenges memorising times tables
• Difficulty telling the time
• Problems estimating time or distance
• Finding patterns, routines, navigation or direction confusing

Some children may show anxiety around maths, avoid number-based tasks, or seem unexpectedly behind in maths compared to other subjects.

It can be difficult to know whether this is a general dislike of maths or a specific learning difficulty. If you’re unsure, it can help to:
• Monitor their progress in maths at school
• Speak with their teacher about how they’re coping
• Ask whether they can recall times tables or estimate time and distance
• Talk to your child about how maths makes them feel
• Notice at home whether they avoid number-based activities

These observations can provide helpful background information if you later decide to explore assessment.
Early recognition gives children the best opportunity to thrive. If you’ve noticed possible signs of dyscalculia, or school has raised concerns, a screening can provide an indication of risk. A screening is brief and does not diagnose. A full diagnostic assessment is more in-depth and provides detailed insight into strengths and challenges. 💪

If you’d like to book a screening for dyscalculia, you can do this via the link https://evolvepsychology.com/services/dyslexia-dyscalculia-assessments/dyscalculia

📢New services launch: Dyscalculia assessments COMING MONDAY 16TH FEBRUARY📢

For some children, ongoing struggles with numbers aren’t about effort or attention - they can be signs of dyscalculia, a specific learning difficulty that often goes unnoticed until school pressure increases.

If maths-related difficulties are starting to affect confidence, progress, or school conversations, gaining clarity can help everyone respond more constructively.

🎉To mark the launch of our dyscalculia assessment service on 16th February, we’re offering £50 off any assessment across our SpLD services until 31st March - for families who are already feeling the need to act.*
